District Conferences enable our members to connect, learn and celebrate together. Guests/non-members are welcome to attend.
The Program Quality Director for the District is ultimately responsible for District Conferences each program year. They often appoint a Conference Director who recruits a team to help plan the conference.
The table below is a summary of key details of past District 91 Conferences. Please get in touch if you are interested in attending or participating in a District Conference.
